Melakukan evaluasi pengaruh pupuk kandang ayam dan NPKMg terhadap produktivitas tanaman aren. Sugar palm (Arenga pinnata Merr.) is a plantation commodity that is very beneficial ecologically and financially because it can adapt to various geographical conditions such as mountains, valleys, riverbanks, and undulating land. However, the development of this plant is still constrained by low cultivation intensification, unstructured planting patterns, and optimal land use, resulting in low productivity. Increasing the productivity of sugar palm plants can be achieved through intensive cultivation. The purpose of this study was to study how chicken manure and NPKMg fertilizer affect the growth of sugar palm plants and determine the best fertilizer dosage.

Abstract

Declining agricultural productivity and crop failures caused by changing rainfall patterns, rising temperatures, and reduced water availability are negative impacts of climate change on agriculture. Threats to the agricultural sector are not only influenced by the impacts of climate change, but also the implementation of conventional farming systems. Implementing an environmentally friendly farming system that is adaptive to climate change and able to improve farmer welfare is one solution to mitigate the negative effects of conventional farming, namely organic farming. Farmer perception is how farmers see, think, and respond to something. Farmer perception influences their decision to implement organic farming. The study aimed to analyze farmers' perceptions of organic farming in terms of economic sustainability, ecological sustainability, and social sustainability and to identify the influence of factors on farmers' perceptions. The study was conducted in Dawuhan Village, Banyumas District, and Lemberang Village, Sokaraja District, using quantitative descriptive approaches with a census method. Farmers' perceptions of organic farming in terms of economic sustainability were categorized as very high (80.6%), very high in terms of ecological sustainability (71%), and very high in terms of social sustainability (83.9%). Factors that significantly influenced farmers' perceptions of organic farming were ease of organic cultivation and relative profitability. Ease of obtaining production inputs, the role of groups and stakeholders did not significantly influence farmers' perceptions.

Abstract

Shallots (Allium ascalanicum L.) are a vegetable commodity with high economic value. Shallot productivity in West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) remains relatively low due to declining soil fertility. One way to increase shallot productivity is through the addition of soil fertility enhancers, such as compost, and fertilizer efficiency. This study aimed to determine the effect of compost, nitrogen fertilizer, and their interaction on shallot growth and yield. The experiment was conducted from May to August 2024 in the greenhouse of the Bima City Agriculture and Plantation Service. The experiment was designed using a factorial Completely Randomized Design consisting of two factors, namely the dose of Compost Fertilizer (3 levels) K0: 0 tons/ha without Compost Fertilizer, K1: 10 tons/ha, K2: 20 tons/ha, and the dose of Nitrogen (4 levels) N0: 0 kg/ha without Nitrogen, N1: 200 kg/ha, N2: 400 kg/ha. The results of the study showed that there was an interaction between the dose of Compost Fertilizer and nitrogen on the growth of plant height, number of leaves and number of cloves, where the dose of Compost Fertilizer was 20 tons/ha and nitrogen at 400 kg/ha gave the highest growth.

Abstract

The advances of the information technology have been effectively utilized by the younger generation to become entrepreneurs. The growth of this young entrepreneur is growing in the emergence of sociopreneurship. This understanding supports the use of techonology in various industries, such as the agricultural sector, to address various social issues. The limitations faced by sociopreneurs, such as the knowledge and experience of the younger generation, encourage collaboration between individuals. The development of sociopreneurship is accelerating with the emergence of various start-up companies created by the younger generation. Digitalization in the agricultural sector, with the help of start-up companies, can address agricultural problems. The aim of this research was to picture the agribusiness ecosystem in the society through the influence of the information technology or digitalism. The method of the research was Systematic Literature Review. The research data were collected from several literature using keywords typed in Google Scholar and then were syntesized according to the research topics. The paper was expected to be the recent literature source for students, farmers, and society about digitalism influence in agribusiness.

Abstract

Soil seed bank refers to seeds that remain dormant and are stored in the soil. One group of plants that commonly stores its seeds in the soil is weeds, which do so as a form of survival and reproduction strategy. This study aimed to analyze the diversity and density of weed soil seed banks at different soil depths in upland and paddy cultivation areas. The research was conducted in the horticultural and paddy field areas of Andalas University, Padang, from May to July 2022. Soil samples were collected using a purposive sampling method at depths of 0–10 cm, 10–20 cm, and 20–30 cm, with three replications for each land type. The data were analyzed descriptively by calculating relative density (KR), relative frequency (FR), summed dominance ratio (SDR), and importance value index (INP). The results showed that both weed species diversity and abundance decreased with increasing soil depth. In upland areas, Euphorbia hirta (patikan kebo) exhibited the highest SDR and INP values at depths of 0–10 cm and 10–20 cm, whereas in paddy fields, this species remained dominant despite a reduction in its population. No viable seeds were found at a depth of 20–30 cm in paddy soils. These findings indicate that variations in soil depth and land conditions significantly influence the composition and dominance of weed species, and such information can serve as a basis for developing effective and site-specific weed management strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effect of light intensity and fertilization on the height and stem diameter growth of oil palm seedlings (Elaeis guineensis Jacq) at 16 weeks of age. The study was conducted under controlled conditions with varying light intensities and types of fertilizer applied to the seedlings. The results showed that an increase in light intensity significantly increased seedling height, with optimal growth recorded at an intensity of 2000 lux, reaching 19.15 cm. In addition, fertilization also had a positive effect on stem diameter, where 15 g of fertilizer produced a maximum diameter of 0.50 cm. Statistical analysis using the BNT test showed significant differences between treatments at a 5% rate. These findings indicate that a combination of good lighting and proper fertilization is very important to support oil palm seedling growth, providing guidance for better cultivation practices in the field.

Abstract

Fermented beverages have become increasingly popular as functional products that offer health benefits, particularly in improving digestive function and enhancing body immunity. However, the successful marketing of these products largely depends on understanding consumer preferences, which may vary according to demographic characteristics, especially across different age groups. This study aims to analyze the differences in consumer preferences for five key attributes of fermented beverages—taste, price, packaging, packaging volume, and serving temperature—across four age categories: children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly. The research employed a quantitative survey method involving 145 respondents. Data were analyzed using frequency distribution tables, boxplot analysis, and the Kruskal–Wallis test. The results revealed that, in general, consumers preferred sweet and sour tastes in balanced proportions, favored products priced above Rp 10,000, and tended to prefer plastic packaging, although interest in glass packaging has begun to emerge. The most preferred packaging volume was 100–250 ml, and cold serving temperature remained the dominant preference. Statistical tests showed significant differences in preferences for price, packaging, and serving temperature across age groups (p < 0.05). Children preferred lower prices, plastic packaging, and cold beverages, whereas adults and the elderly showed a stronger preference for glass packaging, larger volumes, and warmer serving temperatures. Conversely, no significant differences were found in taste and packaging volume preferences (p > 0.05).

Abstract

Horticultural agribusiness plays a strategic role in providing nutritious food and improving community income; however, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in this sector continue to face various constraints that affect business performance. This study aims to analyze the effects of internal factors, namely entrepreneurs’ personal characteristics, entrepreneurial motivation, social support, opportunity recognition and exploitation, and entrepreneurial competence on the performance of horticultural agribusinesses. A quantitative approach with a descriptive–correlational design was employed through a survey of 109 horticultural business actors in West Java, DKI Jakarta, Banten, and Central Java. Data were collected using a 1–5 Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, index-score analysis, and multiple linear regression. The descriptive results indicate that the highest average index score was found for entrepreneurs’ personal characteristics (4.121), while overall agribusiness performance was moderate (3.084), with the lowest scores observed in business volume growth and market share growth. The regression model show that entrepreneurial competence had a positive and significant effect on business performance, whereas the other internal variables were not significant. Practically, the study suggests strengthening technical and managerial competencies, implementing more applied institutional mentoring, and adopting market expansion strategies to enhance business volume and market share.

Abstract

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a strategic horticultural commodity in West Java, making micro-level empirical evidence essential to understand productivity variation at the farm level. This study aims to (1) describe the characteristics of potato farmers and potato farming in West Java; (2) describe land area, production, and potato productivity at the farmer level; and (3) analyze the effects of farmer and farm characteristics on potato productivity. The study employed a quantitative survey approach involving 210 potato farmers in West Java selected through simple random sampling. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression (OLS). Descriptive results show an average landholding of 1.25 ha, production of 26.86 tons per cropping season, and productivity of 21.44 tons/ha; approximately 66.19% of farmers achieved productivity ≥20 tons/ha. Regression results show that age and seed use per hectare significantly and positively influence productivity, while experience and equity percentage significantly but negatively influence it. Other variables, including education, percentage of irrigated land, labor, fertilizer, pesticides, and other costs per hectare, have no significant impact. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening the management of key inputs (especially seed), improving access to productive financing, and providing technical extension support to enhance potato productivity at the farm level in West Java.

Abstract

Leaf Area Index (LAI) is a key biophysical indicator that reflects canopy structure and its capacity to intercept solar radiation, thereby influencing photosynthetic performance. This study aims to examine the relationship between Leaf Area Index and photosynthetic effectiveness in plants. A quantitative observational approach was employed by measuring leaf area, plant density, and photosynthetic rate using standard plant physiological methods. The results indicate that an increase in LAI generally enhances photosynthetic effectiveness due to improved light interception and greater chlorophyll availability. However, excessively high LAI leads to self-shading within the canopy, reducing light penetration to lower leaves and ultimately decreasing photosynthetic efficiency. These findings demonstrate that the relationship between LAI and photosynthetic effectiveness is non-linear and characterized by an optimal LAI range that maximizes photosynthetic performance. Understanding this relationship is crucial for optimizing crop management strategies, improving canopy architecture, and increasing plant productivity in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

The area around Ngasinan Village is hilly with thick soil. The hilly and thick soil conditions make the area prone to landslides. The landslide area intersects with the Ngasinan residents' agricultural land. Landslide material from large landslides and soil movement (creep) can affect agricultural land. This study aims to identify landslide and creep areas that impact agricultural land. The methods used were aerial photography, direct field observation, and in-depth interviews. Based on field data collection, it can be seen that several areas experienced soil movement (creep). Creep damaged irrigation embankments and disrupted agricultural land. Several large landslide locations collapsed thick material, causing the landslide material to press on agricultural land. The community reported that the landslide material did not significantly disrupt agricultural yields, although the boundaries of the rice fields changed. The results of this study can be the beginning of further research related to landslide material entering agricultural land. Then, it will be used as a consideration by the government in constructing irrigation embankments.
